Rubber Making
At Baan Dada's

Ignore the Japanese characters. It says Rubber Tree. There are some trees at Baan Dadas because
they produce rubber for many years and this generates income.

It takes a lot of white sap to make rubber.

The sap is mixed with something and then run through this press when it hardens.

Later it is hung out to dry.

It makes these raw rubber sheets. That's fun to say, moreso if I started a rubber factory. Or a circular one.
And if I made it into jewelry. They couldn't be fake, they would have to be authentic.

A closer shot of the raw rubber hanging. It looked like a car floor mat.
